Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

What UI framework does JetBrains use for it's IDE products?
I think IntelliJ was built on Swing and predates JavaFX… however, I’m curious if they’ve got plans to integrate their Skia integration work that backs desktop compose: https://github.com/JetBrains/skija
-
The Decline and Fall of Java on the Desktop Part 1 (1999-2005)
Maybe the story is not finished yet. New approaches like JetBrain's Compose (https://www.jetbrains.com/de-de/lp/compose-mpp/) with a React inspired programming model might bring some new interest to the platform. Then there is a Java binding library for Skia (https://github.com/JetBrains/skija), and JavaFX is also alive and high quality.
As everyone is used to fat Electron apps now, Java applications (especially compiled and packed with new JDK features) might be refreshing.

I'm losing sleep over Java September 30, 1996
I think it's the core, the 2D engine, just never got the love it needed to be a great place to start. Nobody seemed to prioritize making that happen.
Like, the antialiasing was noticably fuzzy. I never found an applet that looked like it belonged on the webpage. And when I built a few, it was a lot of work to even get font rendering to not be horrendous. And even then, you'd see what the browser rendered vs what the applet rendered and they were always off. I remember using images instead of font rendering sometimes.
So, if you made a swing app, it was easy to put together, but hard to make look "professional".
By the time of the Oracle acquisition, I'm pretty sure everyone just realized "the browser won" and that's why we just had JavaFX get broken off the platform and basically put out to pasture. But it's not like much went into the core platform itself to make building great UIs easy. The underlying 2D rendering just never worked efficiently.
I mean, even today, there's some serious performance issues with IntelliJ on 4k monitors with scaling. https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/JBR-526
When I look at where JetBrains is going, it sure seems like they are building on top of a better 2D engine, in this case, skia: https://github.com/JetBrains/skija.

Running IntelliJ IDEA with JDK 17 for Better Render Performance with Metal
Under the covers it uses Skija which is a java wrapper for Skia which is a C++ 2D graphics engine (https://github.com/JetBrains/skija)

-
Clojure GUI or front-end - what are the options?
You can take a look at Skija from Jetbrains. It's a wrapper around the Skia library used by Chrome, Xamarin, LibreOffice, among others.

ImgMacroBot — Telegram inline bot to generate image macros on the fly.
Technically, the bot is written in Kotlin using Ktor and Koin. It's a single endpoint web service, listening for Telegram Bot API webhooks. Text is drawn using Oswald font (I need Cyrillic, not supported in Anton) with Skija library, a Java wrapper for Skia, a 2D library powering your phone and browser. It is really cool and next time you need to make something with graphics, consider using Skia and its wrapper for your language. Next, generated images are upload to Imgur via its API (the documentation could be better). The whole thing is running on a free VM in Oracle Cloud. So, yeah, next time you need to host something lightweight — check out their offering. Oracle also provides a free DB instance, which I'm using to cache the links. Monitoring: Grafana Cloud (also free). Deployments: GitHub Actions + Ansible. So it didn't cost me a penny, except for ~50 hours of coding in two weeks on the evenings.

Spin 2.0 – open-source tool for building and running WASM apps
Joel from our team worked on the initial prototype for WASI support in TeaVM (https://github.com/konsoletyper/teavm/pull/610), and we temporarily forked before the WASI support made it to the official repo.
Good reminder to deprecate that now!

Bring garbage collected programming languages efficiently to WebAssembly
A number of concerns with the viability of the current WASM GC are covered here (Google translation to English):
https://habr-com.translate.goog/ru/articles/757182/?_x_tr_sl...
and the original article:
https://habr.com/ru/articles/757182/
This is from the author of TeaVM, who has 10 years of experience getting Java and JVM code to run efficiently in the browser. https://teavm.org/
TeaVM's existing transpilation of Java to JavaScript performs well (using the browsers JS GC). It will be interesting to see if WASM GC matures to the point where it is even faster.

Embed your Doom in Java with GraalVM Wasm.
How does this compare to say the TeaVM (https://github.com/konsoletyper/teavm) which I know only has "experimental" WASM support at the moment?

Regex101.com needs help getting a small Rust WASM binary
For Java, no WASM file is requested. Maybe the Java code was transpiled to JavaScript, perhaps using TeaVM.

Oracle Contributing GraalVM Community Edition Java Code to OpenJDK
>> It's not like you can take a random JAR and convert it to WASM.
Maybe you can:
TeaVM is an ahead-of-time compiler for Java bytecode that emits JavaScript and WebAssembly that runs in a browser. Its close relative is the well-known GWT. The main difference is that TeaVM does not require source code, only compiled class files. Moreover, the source code is not required to be Java, so TeaVM successfully compiles Kotlin and Scala.

I have never had an opportunity to try out TeaVM, but it seems promising.

Using Java for the front-end of a web app in 2022
For a fast, lightweight, Java-based front-end, try TeaVM and its Flavour toolkit:
https://teavm.org/
It is easy to get started by using the maven archtetype, there's an tutorial in Java Magazine here:
https://blogs.oracle.com/javamagazine/post/java-in-the-brows...
With TeamVM and Flavour you get a full front-end SPA framework that lets you code business logic in Java, and pair that with HTML and CSS to make components.
To see what it can do, check out Wordii, a fast-paced 5-letter word game:

Minecraft contains some native dependencies, though; you'll need something like https://copy.sh/v86/ or https://bellard.org/jslinux/ with the right operating system image to run it in browser.
